Welcome to Children's Dental Center of Central Iowa, PLC

We really do want you and your kids to feel welcome here. From the time children walk in to the last goodbye it is our goal that your child's dental visit be as pleasant and fun as possible. Children learn and deal with their world through play. Because of that, you will see lots of opportunities for kids to play in our office. Drs. Wade and Bremen are playful with kids to establish a relationship with them from their very first visit. You will find that the doctors will frequently interact with children more than with parents. It is our goal to make our office a place that children understand is specially for them, not just another adult environment that they are expected to adapt to. Learning from an early age that seeing the dentist is fun and enjoyable sets a great foundation for the rest of their life. At Children’s Dental Center of Central Iowa, Dr. Robert Wade and our team understand the importance of our role: we want to help your child develop excellent oral health and a great attitude about dental care and to feel valued!

We care for our patients based on their individual needs, both dentally and emotionally. We support all aspects of their wellbeing, and encourage them to develop self-confidence. Dr. Wade was a child and family therapist, before becoming a pediatric dentist, focusing on caring for children with anxiety and emotional problems. This gives him exceptional insight into how to approach each child’s unique needs.

We are the Midwest's FIRST PEDIATRIC LASER DENTIST! We use multiple types of lasers for a variety of problems from tooth decay and canker sores to correction of tongue and lip ties. No other pediatric office in the midwest has as much expertise in LASER DENTISTRY FOR KIDS! Lasers decrease pain, speed healing and even allow surgery in the office, with no bleeding or stitches, that is otherwise done in an operating room! We are proud to say that patients actually come to us from multiple states as well and European countries for our expertise in treating children.

We invest in your child's comfort by using the latest in proven technology to make dental care as comfortable as possible.

Some of the state of the art care we offer:

Dental exams, cleanings, and fillings for infants, children, teens, and young adults
